Prepare the buttermilk (mix the soymilk and lemon juice and let sit for about 10 minutes/until it curdles-ish)

Preheat the oven to 230°C/450°C

.

In one bowl, mix the flours, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Set aside. In a second bowl, cream the crisco, granulated (white) sugar and 1/4 cup of the brown sugar. Beat until fluffy. Add the egg and mix well. Mix in the buttermilk gently; do not overmix. Stir in the dry ingredients and fold in the apple.

Divide the batter among the prepared muffin cups and sprinkle the other 1/4 cup brown sugar on top. Bake for 10 minutes, then turn the oven down to 205°C/400°F and bake for an additional 5 to 10 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.

Cool and eat.

We forgot to take pictures along the way...actually, no, we didn't think to because we didn't decide to make a blog until the muffins were already baked. So we have after pictures:

It's quite simple: While trying to take a picture, the camera decided it wanted to taste the muffins. So it did. Except it was on a baby tripod that didn't know how to balance, so it fell. And we ended up with a name for our blog.

This is a food blog. Yet another food blog. This one is American, Israeli, and everything in between-- American ingredients, Israeli ingredients, hard-to-find ingredients, imported ingredients, and figuring out how to fake it when we can't get the actual ingredients that we need. Mostly non-dairy stuff, but you can pretty much substitute in dairy.
